Kate:

My philosophy about complaining is that you can’t complain about something if it’s something you can try to change but you’re not doing anything.  I’m not sure if I’m being a hypocrite here, because I do have my moments of trying.

About 10 days before my period starts, I go nuts!  I binge like crazy.  I don’t/can’t control it.  In the past 24-hours, here’s what I’ve eaten (because I didn’t stop myself from going to the grocery store to stock up on junk food):
11 oatmeal creme pies
3 chocolate eclairs
1 small block of cheddar cheese
8 wedges of light Laughing Cow cheese
2 sleeves Club crackers
1 pint chocolate hazelnut gelato
2 pieces strawberry shortcake

I’m pretty sure I’m insane.  I need to get control of myself.  I’m going to the gym after I finish this post, and after that I’m going to try to get my healthy eating back on line.  The thing is, this bingeing is just a phase that I get over once my hormones are on track.  However, this throws off my weight loss for the entire month!  Perhaps I need to go back to therapy.  I’ll try anything at this point.
